The Influence of Western Consumerism on Eastern Culture

The Influence of Western Consumerism on Eastern Culture

Richard Lee; Quynh Anh Duong; Huda Khan; Muhammad Rashid Saeed; Zhixing Xu

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD

sidottu
This book consolidates and documents the influence of Western consumerism on Eastern culture and values.The book provides a thorough overview of the current knowledge regarding Western consumerism and Eastern cultural values. Drawing upon research into consumer behaviour, social psychology, and anthropology, it explores how Western consumer culture has influenced Eastern culture. By surveying a spectrum of domains, including food and cuisine, fashion, music and cinema, healthcare and medicine, the book considers the extent to which traditional Eastern values have changed and evolved during the globalisation and commercialisation process, whether it is a matter of acculturalisation, glocalisation, cultural hybridisation and even modernisation. It also highlights the recent phenomenon of cultural renaissance, where Asian consumers are attempting to reconnect with their traditional culture, thus reversing or at least retarding the influence of Western consumer culture.A book of interest to researchers of socio-cultural studies, consumer culture theory, cross-cultural psychology and consumer behaviour studies.

UFOs And The Nation Of Islam: The Source, Proof, And Reality Of The Wheels

UFOs And The Nation Of Islam: The Source, Proof, And Reality Of The Wheels

Ilia Rashad Muhammad

UFOs were identified and answered before the public had any concerns or questions about them This research puts forth challenging arguments that offer substantial proof and documented evidence regarding the Nation of Islam's (NOI) inherent relationship to the modern UFO phenomena. This compendium of data answers what academics, researchers, and even UFOlogists have deliberately avoided. How did the Honorable Elijah Muhammad know so much about UFOs before there were any public concerns or investigations? Why did the U.S. Government arrest him after they encountered a huge circular UFO in 1942? How is it that Elijah Muhammad and Minister Louis Farrakhan have boldly challenged the world to disprove their connection to these wheel-like crafts and no one has challenged them? "UFOS AND THE NATION OF ISLAM" addresses these and several more questions about the UFO Phenomenon that other researchers cannot answer with verity. Unlike other researchers, theorists, pundits, and skeptics, this book uses the most reliable primary sources regarding this topic-sources that others have deliberately omitted. With over 450 footnotes for ease of verification, this book challenges and debunks common misperceptions about UFOs, leaving no room for even the staunchest critics to doubt. While scientific, religious, and educational schools of thought are afraid to publicly address the UFO phenomenon at its core, this research demystifies and exposes the propaganda, the pundits, and virtually all major UFO related publications that disregard the most reliable and authoritative source on this topic-the Nation of Islam.The UFO cover-up is not simply to hide the fact that such objects exist; instead, the cover-up is to prevent the public from knowing the source of power behind these crafts.

Antioxidant Studies of the Banana Leaves (Musa acuminata)

Antioxidant Studies of the Banana Leaves (Musa acuminata)

Krishna Veni Veloo; Nur Rasyidah Muhammad

LAP Lambert Academic Publishing

pokkari
Musa acuminata compound was successfully isolated and screened for their antioxidant activity. Musa acuminata leaves were macerated by using four types of different solvents which are methanol, acetone, hexane and distilled water. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) and column chromatography were used to isolate the crude extracts and fractions by using different type of solvent system. The antioxidant activity of banana leaves were evaluated by using 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, total phenolic content (TPC) assay and total flavonoids content (TFC) assay. Methanol crude extract was selected as best crude extract. The best solvent to separate methanol extract was ethyl acetate. Ethyl acetate was also the best solvent for the first and second chromatography fraction. HPLC result analysis confirmed the selected fraction has single compound. Methanol extract and selected fraction shows low activity toward the DPPH assay but high antioxidant activity in total phenolic and total flavonoids content.

Biography of Resistance

Biography of Resistance

Muhammad H. Zaman

Harper Wave
2020
sidottu
Award-winning Boston University educator and researcher Muhammad H. Zaman provides a chilling look at the rise of antibiotic-resistant superbugs, explaining how we got here and what we must do to address this growing global health crisis.In September 2016, a woman in Nevada became the first known case in the U.S. of a person who died of an infection resistant to every antibiotic available. Her death is the worst nightmare of infectious disease doctors and public health professionals. While bacteria live within us and are essential for our health, some strains can kill us. As bacteria continue to mutate, becoming increasingly resistant to known antibiotics, we are likely to face a public health crisis of unimaginable proportions. “It will be like the great plague of the middle ages, the influenza pandemic of 1918, the AIDS crisis of the 1990s, and the Ebola epidemic of 2014 all combined into a single threat,” Muhammad H. Zaman warns.The Biography of Resistance is Zaman’s riveting and timely look at why and how microbes are becoming superbugs. It is a story of science and evolution that looks to history, culture, attitudes and our own individual choices and collective human behavior. Following the trail of resistant bacteria from previously uncontacted tribes in the Amazon to the isolated islands in the Arctic, from the urban slums of Karachi to the wilderness of the Australian outback, Zaman examines the myriad factors contributing to this unfolding health crisis—including war, greed, natural disasters, and germophobia—to the culprits driving it: pharmaceutical companies, farmers, industrialists, doctors, governments, and ordinary people, all whose choices are pushing us closer to catastrophe.Joining the ranks of acclaimed works like Microbe Hunters, The Emperor of All Maladies, and Spillover, A Biography of Resistance is a riveting and chilling tale from a natural storyteller on the front lines, and a clarion call to address the biggest public health threat of our time.

Bitter Pills

Bitter Pills

Muhammad H. Zaman

Oxford University Press Inc
2018
sidottu
Long the scourge of developing countries, fake pills are now increasingly common in the United States. The explosion of Internet commerce, coupled with globalization and increased pharmaceutical use has led to an unprecedented vulnerability in the U.S. drug supply. Today, an estimated 80% of our drugs are manufactured overseas, mostly in India and China. Every link along this supply chain offers an opportunity for counterfeiters, and increasingly, they are breaking in. In 2008, fake doses of the blood thinner Heparin killed 81 people worldwide and resulted in hundreds of severe allergic reactions in the United States. In 2012, a counterfeit version of the cancer drug Avastin, containing no active chemotherapy ingredient, was widely distributed in the United States. In early 2013, a drug trafficker named Francis Ortiz Gonzalez was sentenced to prison for distributing an assortment of counterfeit, Chinese-made pharmaceuticals across America. By the time he was arrested, he had already sold over 140,000 fake pills to customers. Even when the U.S. system works, as it mostly does, consumers are increasingly circumventing the safeguards. Skyrocketing health care costs in the U.S. have forced more Americans to become "medical tourists" seeking drugs, life-saving treatments and transplants abroad, sometimes in countries with rampant counterfeit drug problems and no FDA. Bitter Pills will heighten the public's awareness about counterfeit drugs, critically examine possible solutions, and help people protect themselves. Author Muhammad H. Zaman pays special attention to the science and engineering behind both counterfeit and legitimate drugs, and the role of a "technological fix" for the fake drug problem. Increasingly, fake drugs affect us all.

We Wait for a Miracle

We Wait for a Miracle

Muhammad H. Zaman

Johns Hopkins University Press
2024

The story of how we treat refugees is a story about our own moral failings, and the barriers that refugees face in accessing health care can be as difficult to overcome as any other adversity in their path to stability.Around the world, millions are forcibly displaced by conflict, climate change, and persecution. Some cross international borders, while others are displaced within their own countries. In We Wait for a Miracle, Muhammad H. Zaman shares poignant stories across continents to highlight the health care experiences of refugees and forced migrants. For many of these people, health risks unfortunately become part of the fabric of everyday life as they navigate new countries that treat them with varying degrees of care and indifference. Across widely varied local systems, countries of origin, health concerns, and other contexts, Zaman finds that barriers to health care share these key factors: trust, social network, efficiency of the health system, and the regulatory framework of the host environment. A combination of these factors explains difficulties in accessing health care across the geographic and geopolitical spectrum and challenges the existing global public health framework, which is based entirely on local context. In moving stories that span seven countries—Sudan, South Sudan, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Pakistan, Colombia, and Venezuela—Zaman shares the everyday struggles of refugees, the internally displaced, and the stateless in accessing the health care they need.This unique look at an urgent global challenge addresses the issue of access for populations that are currently in distress due to civil war, economic collapse, or a conflict driven by external state actors. Organic social networks and trust, rather than top-down policies, are often what save the lives of migrants, refugees, and the stateless. Focusing on that trust—and its deficit—in camps, urban slums, hospitals, and clinics, Zaman combines personal and journalistic accounts of refugees with broad systemic analysis on global health care access to compare problems and solutions in different regions and provide holistic policy and practice recommendations for refugees, internally displaced persons, and stateless populations.

A paradigm-shifting exploration of the politics of health around the world, by an award-winning scientist"Zaman's optimism . . . is welcome. . . . His sense of urgency is irresistible." --The Wall Street Journal on Muhammad H. Zaman's The Biography of Resistance In this groundbreaking new book, award-winning scientist Muhammad H. Zaman--an expert on how disease affects vulnerable communities--delves into the history of U.S. epidemics, from the earliest cases of syphilis, cholera, and smallpox to AIDS and the recent COVID crisis, to show how the country's response (or lack thereof) to infectious disease in America is part of a critical, time-tested strategy in America's toolbox of oppression of the weak, the poor, and the non-white.In the vein of Rebecca Skloot's The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks and Dorothy Roberts's Fatal Invention, Infected is the epic story of white supremacists, compromised doctors, racist politicians, and the heroes who challenged them. Zaman shows that exclusionary immigration acts, the Tuskegee syphilis experiments, the development of biological weapons, the early response to the AIDS epidemic, the fake CIA vaccination campaign in Pakistan, and the xenophobic rhetoric sparked by the COVID-19 pandemic are all parts of the same deeper story--one of medical science twisted in the service of social control.This is a story that continues today, on Native American reservations, in foreign zones occupied by the U.S. military, and on our borders, where asylum seekers are denied lifesaving medicines. Melding cutting-edge science and history, Infected presents infection as a key to understanding our recent past, present, and future.
